+ January-February 2015 - Ertuğrul team to resume excavation season in Kushimoto, Japan

The well known archaeological underwater site of the Ertuğrul shipwreck in Kashino village, Oshima Island in Wakayama, Japan, will be the center of attention again this year during the winter months thanks to the joined excavation project between INA, with Tufan Turanli and Berta Lledo, and Kushimoto Municipality. The main Sponsor of the 2015 project is Mersin Chamber of Shipping.

Management of the finds and conservation work will take palce in the Ertuğrul Research Center, or locally known as the ERC, in Kushimoto village. As usual, the lab will be open to volunteers that want to participate in the project and be part of history.
